However, people didn’t factor in the thick clouds that would obscure it from view – and even those who did see it were left with grainy, unimpressive photos of it looking more or less like a regular moon (unless you’re a Getty photographer or something, in which case, good job on all the nice shots).

But there was a solution – tortilla wraps.

Trying to make the best of the situation, people ended up sticking tortilla wraps to their windows and photographing them for that ‘supermoon’ effect.
